A day or two ago a negro at work on
Capt. Adams grove, across the river,
discovered and killed an immense rattle
snake. He was all cooled up and ready
to strike when the negro saw him lying
only two feet from where he was stand
ing. 1t was but the work of an instant
to dispatch the snake with hoe, which
the man was working with The snake
was cut into several pieces, and when
examined he was found to have. twenty
four rattles on his tail, which unluckily
were cut in two by the hoe. A short
time afterward another of the same
family was found and killed.
